    Why covid cases not under control ? Or why Covid death tally is increasing or it gets added deaths due to Covid vaccine also? Divine Message on it to John Leary dated Wednesday, August 11, 2021 (Message mainly to american but also rest of the faithful or believers) Jesus said: “My people, you are seeing a good number of people dying from the complications of receiving the Covid shots. This casket in the vision is an example of someone who died from the Covid shots, but many morticians and doctors are not publicly reporting these effects from the shots. The authorities lie about people who die, and they add these deaths to the Covid virus tally, even when they did not die from the virus. They also lie about covering up deaths from the Covid vaccines. I keep telling people not to take these poisonous shots, but now your employers and colleges are mandating the shots for employees and students, or they will lose their jobs and not be able to come to college. This is a dangerous loss of your freedoms, and a good number of vaccinated people will die with the next wild corona virus. I continue to remind My believers, who were vaccinated, that they get blessed with the Good Friday oil, or the exorcism water with the miraculous medal. I will bring My Warning before the next deadly virus comes, and people will know this healing information at My Warning. Trust in My healing power so you will not die from the evil one’s plans.”.... Jesus said: “My people, it is sad that your country is allowing corporations to demand mandatory vaccines, or you could lose your job. The same is true of colleges who are demanding Covid shots, or you cannot come to college for your degree. I am directing people to the americasfrontlinedoctors.org website where they have forms for workers or college students. You have your employer sign it that you will take the shot if they promise to pay for any medical complications from the shot. Most employers will shy away from being responsible for any health problems. This could be one way to legally hold your employer off from this unlawful mandatory Covid shot. You do not need this shot, and it is poison and it can destroy your immune system so you could die from the next corona virus. Trust in Me to protect you, but this is a dilemma for people who need a job to support their families.” Ref: http://www.johnleary.com/index.php/?cat=3&order=DESC
